This meditation notification popped up on my phone right when I was in the middle of a strong nervous system meltdown/burst of spontaneous tears which led me to believe that it was a nudge from the universe that it’s ok to care about me, and that there are no rules about feelings and emotions. My heart and my well being deserves this kind of care. Thank you for being the conduit for this nudge.

And thank you too for the care you so kindly gave me a couple weekends ago on the stage at Omega too, your hand on your heart and the kindness in your eyes as you heard my story/question. So grateful for you Jeff. ❤️🙏

Jeff, your guidance in this meditation offered a gentle and much needed caress…. which left me in tears. As I sat with my hands held softly against my heart, I felt the anguish of witnessing all the cruelty of these times. And then I felt the comfort of my hands touching my heart.

Thank you , my friend.

After a busy week and a rough day, I was headed back to Cortes Island via the Photosynthesizing Hairdo meditation (which is amazing if you haven’t heard it) and was greeted by this Friday meditation drop.

I like the idea of a Friday meditation because the week often saps us of a lot of our resources, and a Friday reset can be a great value.

This meditation is a great reminder to care for yourself and care for others, maybe even give yourself a break every once in a while. A great reminder that we tend to be in a constant state of forward, leaning forward and rushing, and that slowing down and just being a body can be powerful medicine.

It was also another example of the meditation I’m listening to being exactly what I needed exactly when I needed it. Funny how that tends to work out. My theory is we need all of it all the time so it’s always on time and on point.

Thanks for another great offering, Jeff.

Have a great weekend everybody.

Nice David! We do need it all the time, that’s a fine way common sense way to frame synchronicities

Yes! to your theory about Jeff's meditations being exactly what we need whenever they arrive, because we do indeed need all of it. The challenge is to create more space in our lives to step back, even if just for a few minutes.

My cat came over and sat right in my lap during this meditation.

My cats always meditate with me! I like to think we make a kind of cool energy loop, together. Animals are sometimes easier than people.

Animals and young kids, little islands of wildness and presence.

So good Jeff. Thank you. Fridays are good.

My nervous system has been royally effed since the summer. Somehow I have found a badass therapist who specializes in nervous system healing and a myriad of somatic healing modalities (along with homeopathic remedies from naturopathic doctors). So glad Scott’s healing hands can give you and your family beautiful peace. Blessings.

Thank you, friend. This came at the right time for me as I got into my third busy day of hockey games with my son. I so very much appreciate you, your voice and this practice. Let’s us go and move with care in all aspects today! Keep going and keep growing, my friend! 🫶🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽

Really beautiful meditation. It filled my compassion cup, too, which is usually empty by Friday so I think the new cadence is perfect. Thank you, Jeff! Look forward to seeing you at AOL next weekend.

Love this one Jeff. Healing hands. So powerful. Began my journey in holistic health at 25 with traditional Chinese medicine before western medicine had acknowledged panic attacks. My practitioner Virginia, became my lifesaver for the next 45 years. Her touch, the needles, the teas, a beautiful healing modality.🙏🏻

I was comfortably laying down doing this meditation today. Because i didn’t have anything nearby to gently hold between my hands, I had my fingers on my left hand touch and surround my great grandmother‘s ring that I wear my ring finger. It was absolutely perfect! The whole meditation was perfect and came to me today, exactly when I needed it. Thank you, Jeff. You are a gem and loved by so many others! 🫶
